Abstract
Using deionized water as working medium, studies on visualization of the behavior of subcooled boiling bubbles in narrow rectangular channels have been conducted at atmospheric pressure, with the help of a high-speed digital camera. The effects of wall superheat, fluid subcooling and mass flux on the bubble dynamic model of nucleation site density, bubble departure frequency and bubble departure diameter were investigated. This paper analyzed the visual graphic results and obtained quantitative values about bubble nucleation site density, bubble departure frequency and bubble departure diameter under different conditions. Based on the results, wall nucleate boiling models in the conventional channel put forward by Nilanjana Basu have been corrected. The new correlation agrees reasonably well with existing experimental data in 2mm narrow rectangular channel.
